What G20 Ag Ministers Can Do
Our latest ZimmPoll asked, “What can G20 ag ministers do to stabilize food prices?” The answer is Nothing, 31%; Increase productivity, 23%; End biofuels production, 18%; Regulate markets, 17%; Improve crop reporting, 8% and Stockpile food, 3%. Can they actually do any of these things? Well, I guess they can do nothing. They met recently and did come up with “a plan.” Interestingly, stockpiling food is part of their plan. Hmm . . .
Our new ZimmPoll is now live. We’re asking the question, “What do you think of USDA’s proposed GIPSA rule?” Let us know what you think. Don’t know much about GIPSA? Check out this link to find a series of posts on the subject.
ZimmPoll is sponsored by Rhea+Kaiser, a full-service advertising/public relations agency.
In this week's program you can listen in to my conversation with Bill Howard, Fastline, about their new mobile game app, AgRacer.

Rocking A Ranch
Leave the GISPA the way it is and watch the meatpackers take the livestock industry down the way of the chicken and hog section. It will be the death nell of the family small farmer and many local comunities. Killing the GISPA rule will kill jobs and local productive agriculture. The small rancher/farmer needs the help GISPA will provide!! We have been waiting long enough for this help. Senator Roberts you are not helping.
